The directory pointed by the FileDir INI file entry cannot be found.Aborting

点击PADS后就会出现以下: "The directory pointed by the FileDir INI file entry cannot be found.Aborting."点确定后，
软件自动关闭。

解决办法：
打开(X:\MentorGraphics\2005PADS)\SDD_HOME\Programs\powerlogic.ini，注意：括号中的路径为PADS在用户磁盘上的安装路径；
按PADS Logic软件的错误提示框中显示的内容，定位至powerlogic.ini文件中相应设置项，如“FileDir”等逐一修改为磁盘上存在的路径，即可。

Pads, Power Logic:
Notes, tips & workarounds.Logic default settings & paths in the ‘ini’ file V2005.
Sadly Pads logic doesn’t allow you to set the default paths & settings of a project from within the program itself. So a little digging around in the ‘ini’ file is required.
Go to:
C:\MentorGraphics\2005PADS\SDD_HOME\Programs\powerlogic.ini
Open the file in Notepad or a text editor & near the top you’ll see;
FileDir=C:\PADS Projects\
LibDir=C:\MentorGraphics\2005PADS\SDD_HOME\Libraries
UserDir=C:\MentorGraphics\2005PADS\SDD_HOME\Settings
SystemDir=C:\MentorGraphics\2005PADS\SDD_HOME\Programs
ReuseDir=C:\PADS Projects\Reuse
CAMDir=C:\PADS Projects\Cam
FileDir: This is where the program will open a file from, so if you have a project location or mapped drive you wish to work from, place it here.
LibDir: This is set in the Library menu under ‘Manage Lib List’
UserDir: This is the settings location & is normal left as the default path set by Mentor, unless of course you want to move the settings files also!
SystemDir: As the name suggests this is the Logics system path & really needs to be left as the default installation intended.
ReuseDir: Location for Reuse libraries
CAMDir: Location for CAM output.
However if you have many different clients with different library sets etc, a quick tip to get around re-setting these settings all the time is to keep separate ‘ini’ files for each client named with the clients name & just copy it & rename it to the default name each time you need to change over settings.

Logic default page for a ‘New file’.

[size=11.333333015441895px]Got a specific clients border sheet that you want to automatically bring in to a schematic each time or appear when you select a ‘New File’? First open the sheet & set-up the setting to your liking, go into all the settings & menus that you want to set & wouldn’t want to keep having to re-set each time, like Grid size, Sheet size etc. Then export this out from ‘File > Export’ save asdefault.txt
Next go to:
C:\MentorGraphics\2005PADS\SDD_HOME\Settings\default.txt
Keep a copy of this Mentor default somewhere safe, but you can now take your new file & over write this default.txt. So now as long as the UserDir path in your ‘powerlogic.ini’ file is still set to the Mentor default path, the next time you open Logic it will display your new Border with all the settings already set for you.
